TTM net loss of C¥8.8b keeps profitability under pressure

• Over the trailing 12 months, LVGEM reported total revenue of C¥1,866.0 million against a net loss of C¥8,795.1 million, meaning losses are several times larger than the revenue base and follow a multi year pattern where earnings have declined at about 72% per year.
• Bears focus on this earnings profile, arguing that such a large trailing loss and the 72% annual decline in earnings signal a business under clear profitability strain.
  • They point out that net losses in the last three reported half year periods, at C¥1,528.2 million, C¥3,643.2 million and C¥1,837.9 million, show that losses have been sizeable across multiple periods rather than tied to a single event.
  • They also flag that the trailing basic EPS loss of C¥1.46 per share sits well below each individual half year EPS loss, which they read as evidence that the weak earnings pattern has persisted over time rather than being a short blip.

C¥1,039.7m 1H 2025 revenue vs C¥1,771.1m in 2H 2024

• Revenue moved from C¥1,942.8 million in 1H 2024 to C¥1,771.1 million in 2H 2024 and then C¥1,039.7 million in 1H 2025, while basic EPS losses stayed in a fairly tight range at around C¥0.30 to C¥0.70 per half, so revenue and per share losses are not moving in lockstep.
• What is interesting for a bearish view is that critics highlight this combination of softer recent revenue and ongoing losses as a sign that current activity levels may not yet be enough to offset the cost base.
  • They note that between 1H 2024 and 1H 2025, total revenue fell by hundreds of millions of yuan while basic EPS shifted from a C¥0.30 loss to a C¥0.31 loss, which suggests the per share loss has not widened in line with the revenue change.
  • At the same time, the trailing 12 month revenue of C¥1,866.0 million now sits below each of the last three individual half year revenue figures except 1H 2025, which bears use to argue that recent periods have been weaker contributors to the overall top line.

DCF fair value of HK$7.08 vs HK$0.27 share price

• The current share price of HK$0.27 is very far below the stated DCF fair value of HK$7.08, while the P/S of 0.8x sits between the Hong Kong real estate industry average of 0.6x and the peer average of 1.7x, so the stock trades at a discount to that DCF metric but at a premium to the broader industry on sales.
• Supporters of a more bullish angle point to this valuation gap, arguing that the very low share price relative to the DCF fair value leaves room if cash flows stabilize, but the earnings track record clearly tests that optimism.
  • On the positive side for that bullish angle, the P/S of 0.8x is below the 1.7x peer average, which they view as suggesting the market is pricing LVGEM more cautiously than some comparables despite the higher DCF fair value figure.
  • On the other hand, the same dataset highlighting the HK$7.08 DCF fair value also records a multi year 72% annual decline in earnings, which makes it clear that any optimistic case has to square that valuation with a very weak historic earnings path.
